 Trivial offenses. You see, in Vondrelli's mind, pro-lifers who are now calling attention to the many ethical problems with IVF are just doing the same thing, allowing the counterproductive radicals to take over the movement in the wake of a victory. On a side note, his claim that pro-lifers are aflame with their success makes me wonder if he's actually spoken to pro-lifers lately. The pro-life leaders I know are in a pretty glum mood, all trying to figure out what we can do after numerous defeats at the ballot box.
